It appears to be a British Beaumont-Adams, first made in the 1850's. This picture is not identical to yours, but there were several different models.

The Union Army bought a bunch in .36 at the beginning of the Civil War. they were popular enough that they forced Sam Colt to shut down his UK operation.
